The ironworks opened its doors in 1789, for another revolution... It is now one of the best preserved forges in Europe. We visit its huge furnaces that were powered by coal. It is also a whole living environment that we discover: an information centre houses models that provide an overview of the site's structure and internal organization. Photographs and press clippings from the period also provide information on the fate of these pioneers of the industrial revolution.

Visite gratuite des forges de Blaenavon. Présentation interactive particulièrement bien faite sur le travail de l'acier, principalement au XIXe siècle. Maisons d'ouvriers reconstituées selon les différentes époques. Possibilité de faire de magnifiques randonnées jusqu'à Govilon. Visite intéressante pour comprendre le passé industriel et minier de la région.
